Leakage and erosion of a soluble subgrade overlain by a geomembrane with a 70-mm-long slit defect is examined. The subgrade (gypsum) solubility and its rate of dissolution from a solid state in contact with various solutions are investigated. In the

Low-permeability liners are required at the base of municipal solid waste (MSW) landfills to minimize leachate leakage and contaminant migration into groundwater. This paper uses a two-dimensional coupled groundwater flow and contaminant transport mo

An experimental study of the effect of closed system and a limited study of open system freeze–thaw cycles on the interface transmissivity at applied stresses between 10 and 150 kPa is described. The effect of closed system freeze–thaw is most ap

The self-healing of five geosynthetic clay liners (GCLs) with laboratory simulated down-slope erosion defects (quasi-circular holes and linear slits where there is little or no bentonite) upon hydration from Godfrey silty sand subgrade with wfdn = 16

The impact of time-dependent unsaturated behaviour of virgin and the impact of cation self-diffusion on the time-dependent unsaturated behaviour of exhumed geosynthetic clay liner (GCL) specimens were investigated using a chilled mirror hygrometer. T

Swelling characteristics of compacted bentonite when hydrated with a hypersaline pore fluid (332 g/L total dissolved solids; 6.6 mol/L ionic strength) are reported. The pore fluid mimics the multiple constituents and their concentrations found for th

A modified osmotic suction control technique for monitoring apparent transient weight changes was successfully adapted to the wetting and drying paths of geosynthetic clay liners (GCLs). Reasonable control was possible, enabling suction equilibrium t

Desiccation of geosynthetic clay liners (GCLs) in composite lining systems is investigated experimentally. Field conditions similar to those encountered in brine ponds (high surface temperature and low overburden pressure of 20 kPa) are simulated in

A new approach is presented to obtain the water retention curve of a geosynthetic clay liner (GCL) on the wetting path (i.e. when it is hydrating). This approach is based on a back-analysis process using data from a hydration test. The back-analysis

The self-healing of a GCL with artificial defects (circular holes and rectangular slits, both with and without the carrier geotextile preserved below the holes) upon hydration on a Godfrey silty sand (GSS) subgrade with wfdn = 5, 10 and 16% under 2
